What is the usual thickness of plywood for plywood tanks ?
- Thread starter plecostic
- Start date
3/4 Is the basic plywood used. I used 2 pieces of 3/4" laminated together for my 310. I also glued all the pieces together and then screwed as well. I used outdoor wood glue as its water resistant. can't be too safe 
In a plywood tank the way you describe it you should atleast put fillets in there for support in corners and seams. The fillets make the seams VERY stong.. When its fully cured, its stooone hard! Will prevent cracking in the epoxy if the wood lives a little.
What is fillets ? You mean wood putty ?
I'm thinking of a 180 gallon to start with for my pacu and have it outside on patio then later upgrade it to 300+ when they outgrow.
Well I'm in the process of building an 8ft stand, got the frame all done. Probably long for a 180 which I think is around 6ft. I plan on keeping the stand around to upgrade to something that will fit better on it later. With a 180 that will give me some extra table space.
Smart decision. Saves u time n money on building another stand for ur next upgrade.
